The room was clean, staff was good. It was a little noisy being that fah was really close.
Hard parking near the area, locals around make lots of noise when they are cleaning like 3 am in the morning still making lots of loud noises. Not like at all. Not cleaning service, wifi and tv didn’t work
Unit was just OK. AC worked fine. We were there for 6 days and the room was cleaned once and only because we requested it. Staff was friendly. As it is located on 5th Ave in Playa Del carmen, location is ideal for a variety of activities, restaurants, beach, ferries to Cozumel. Very noisy in the evening until approx 2 AM.
The room had an odd odour and it was in deplorable conditions, it also did not have amenities (shampoo, soap, etc) we approached the receptionist to inform her and asked for a different room. Still, she wasn't helpful nor with any customer service and only called the cleaning staff over to explain that there was nothing they could do. They exchanged our room for a smaller one, which had gum in the wall
Room was spotless, wifi was great, hot water and great water pressure.Rooftop area was nice and relaxing. One of may favourite hotels in playa and we have been to 7 of them. Not a bunch of rules and they never bug you so you can just relax and enjoy your stay. Staff was very pleasant to us,

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Nice place, quick check in and right on 5th Avenue don't miss the rooftop pool.
They tried to charge me a ripped blanket, the restroom had mold the door didnt close restroom had used paper toilet and when i asked for towels they told me they cleaned the rooms every 3 days and they could not give me any towels when i check out the desk man was angry because i didnt leave tip for cleaning but what tip if they didnt clean any during my stay neither gave me towels to shower very bad experience
Very plain - but the price was right - and the location was perfect. Internet didn't work. A/C was great. No reading lamps next to the bed. Bed was very comfortable - and clean. Staff had no English - I was just happy to be in PDC. Right on 5th Ave.
You get what you pay for. Not quiet AT ALL, music is blasting until 3AM every night. There was construction on site or close by that started at 8AM which would loud rumbling. They told us that if the towels or sheets got dirty that we will be charged full price for them. This place is the definition of Landlord Special, everything is painted over and looks like it needs work. The shower had no door so the bathroom floor would become a huge mess and they would say to just leave it because if you used their towel and it got dirty then you had to pay for it. We stayed for 5 nights and not once did we get room service or get it cleaned up. The garbage was never taken and wouldn’t get the bed done and wouldn’t even get toilet paper checked on. Even with having the “Fix Room” sign hanging on the door. There is no breakfast or meals onsite, no microwave and no parking. Luckily there was AC, Fridge and Tv.
